Typically we offer the seal in a double configuration so that there can be a sterile boundry between
product and atmosphere, however we offer a single version should the need arise. Features
Double seals can be used with a “pressurized” or “unpressurized” barrier system depending on the ap-
plication. ●● Ready-to-install as cartridge unit

Mechanical seals for TOP ENTRY and SIDE ENTRY mixers

Top entry and side entry mixers typically need mechanical seals. Double Mechanical seals
In sanitary process vessels, the mixer may have a sealing barrier to allow pressure or vacuum in the
tank, or an aseptic sealing device to provide a hygienic seal between the tank and the outside of the The Huhnseal ED seal is a double balanced cartridge seal maintaining sealing performance even during

This robust seal has excellent radial and axial movement capabilities.
The springs are located outside both the product and barrier/buffer areas minimizing risk of clogging.
Single Mechanical seals

The Huhnseal ES seal is a balanced single seal with unique design features as noted below.
Materials offered are FDA and USP Class VI and offering the same flexibility for surface finish.

Features

●● Balanced cartridge seal design

●● Excellent axial movement capabilities

Features ●● Excellent radial movement capabilities

●● Atmospheric location of spring package
